The difference isn't like ABC or NBC difference, it's like a million dollar McLaren race car and a Toyota Corolla difference. How the hell you get confused with a crappy low budget - any losers from their garage can make it on YouTube vs. real main stream Game of Thrones Netflix platform?
C'mon man, truly this post is a fail from the start.
I saw this video, all it says it's about East vs. West, Lineage 1 Isotropic vs. Lineage 2 3D and how the original Lineage1 is doing really well financially despite it being older. In fact, Lineage1 has that true feeling of that old Ultima Online feeling from the mid 1990's. That was awesome. I remember playing Ultima 7 on PC DOS in 1993, I love Dupre's crossbow and killing giant spiders in the desert. It was remarkable in its days because you can move objects and the world server will save the object being moved. You can kill a cat walking nearby or kill a guard and get the wrath of the other Lord British guards coming after you. Was so cool back in 1993. LOL. I have a 486 computer, was 2 generation more advanced than any computer of its era since my dad works for a computer company and that was the top secret next generation machine not available for sale in public.
Anyways, the point is - a 2D Isotropic game like that Ultima7 and Ultima Online of the mid 1990's can still be extremely fun that Lineage1 (1999) if the gameplay is done right. Also due to the low computer specs requirement, the reach is broad, I can see why L1 has such a long longevity if the game design is excellent.
